Sony HP-610 All in One Receiver and Turntable

Many that know vintage audio will say (and rightly so) to steer well clear of all-in-one units. Particularly those by SoundDesign and similiar ilk. But every rule has its exceptions. and this Sony HP-610 is one of them. Instead of the usual all-on-one cheap components, and flimsy build quality, the Sony combines a quality components and a very well built cabinet.

The receiver is a nice, Sony built, silver faced unit that produces about 30 watts per channel. The turntable is a very well regarded German made Dual 1210. The pair is housed in a heavy duty, wooden cabinet that skips the usual vinyl veneer for real wood.
